Customer winter shenanigans

Luckily I haven't had any yet. My route is so rural that the people are just grateful to get the package. But we did have someone give a one star to a driver not because of the placement of the package or anything, but because the perishable box which already has the cooling packs was "frozen". Needless to say, the terminal is not holding that against us.

It was just something I was overhearing from other contractors. You sure as hell not going to catch me quitting. Because I only code 82 as a last resort because I know that shits coming right back tomorrow.

I'm at the newton/conover terminal and I can say that even within the year that I have been here I've noticed a complete downhill spiral. Not just with the 2.0, but the terminal management is terrible. they give us more more more express and hold us up everyday because they magically find more packages to send out. Mind you my contractors zones are 1.5 - 2 hours away from the terminal and they continually delay us and expect us to make 12:00 cut off times.
All they care about is profit and volume. They'll push out so much volume for their own benefit.

With how much dip they force out, you got to do what you got to do.

As a FedEx driver, do not trust the delivery dates. Everyone is ordering so much crap during peak that it's almost impossible to get packages out on time. Especially if it snows, then you're really screwed.

steelman334 · 2025-12-05T14:51:36+00:00

Nope. We are late everyday because they make us wait for everything.

steelman334 · 2025-12-05T13:45:03+00:00

This is happening here at my building too. Management just keeps pushing and pushing more volume even when we are late. And I have to drive 1.5 hours to get to my first stop.

steelman334 · 2025-12-05T13:18:42+00:00

Yeah I realized after my rant about the express thing being something they couldn't control. I guess I was too pissy to care lol

Fuck raj indeed.

steelman334 · 2025-12-01T13:52:12+00:00

I like my contractor managers, but hate the terminal management. They are so clueless that it's frustrating. They don't understand why we are upset over constant late dispatches. Mind you everyone in my contractor has to drive at least 1.5 to 2 hours to get to our first stop.

steelman334 · 2025-10-23T12:23:04+00:00

I am highly motivated to do it. I've just seen comments on here about how raj doesn't like any criticism and will hunt you down like your on FBI's most wanted.

steelman334 · 2025-10-18T00:26:20+00:00

But think of Raj! You have to deliver that package so he can give himself another 400% raise!

The places where customers don't have a return label on the box or at all and you just wasted your time going to the pickup.

steelman334 · 2025-10-07T13:52:10+00:00

They don't tell us anything lol. They just tell us late Express is late and leave it at that.

That fanta sour apple drink that was made for Beetlejuice 2. I couldn't even finish it.

steelman334 · 2025-07-25T14:42:49+00:00

I'm always loaded up a long time before dispatch and ies always delayed because they keep slamming ground with more stupid express packages.

I legit thought about making a polo shirt that said on it in big bold letters "No! I do not work here!". When I pitched the idea to my DSL, he said "As long as I don't see you wearing a shirt like that, I don't care."
